Dogs are wo-man's best friend. Dogs are family. We love them and
they loves us back-unconditionally. Like we humans, dogs get
ailments. They may experience anxieties and stress. As they age,
dogs suffer aches and pains, just like we do. So we take our canine
friend to the local veterinarian to tend to their ailment. Often,
the Vet prescribes medication-a powerful pharmaceutical, which is
usually effective, although not always. Pharmaceuticals, like
opioids, can be addictive and have other worrisome side-effects.
Now a safer alternative is emerging-cannabis for canines.
Administration of cannabis and cannabis-based extracts to benefit
over-all health and well-being are used by humans to treat an array
of ailments. There is much to suggest that cannabis may benefit
dogs as well. Many dog-moms and dads are giving cannabis potions to
their pooches-with good results. The problem is that as a result of
cannabis being classified as a Schedule 1 Drug by federal law since
the 1930s, there has been little research. Veterinarian have no
training in cannabis therapeutics and risk "losing their license"
if they recommend it. And, until recently, cannabis was not readily
available to the law-abiding dog owner. CANNABIS FOR CANINES
explains cannabis therapeutics: how they can soothe many physical
and psychological conditions and be used in conjunction with
pharmaceutical medications, as well as preventatively. CANNABIS FOR
CANINES describes cannabinoids, which are chemicals in the plant,
and how they interact with a dog's endocannabinoid system to soothe
their distress. Readers learn the importance of close observation
and how to track conditions as a way to check for effectiveness of
the treatment and the importance of keeping their Vet in the loop,
especially if the dog is taking a pharmaceutical. Precautions are
included. CANNABIS FOR CANINES is a fun, informative read of
interest to dog owners and canine professionals. -- Beverly Potter,
